Watching Her Sleep

 

With stillness of heart, I stand right here

Look down and watch you sleep

Lost to this world in innocence

My love for you runs deep

Your hair lies tumbled, blond and so

Locks falling here and there

Hidden behind soft smoldering lids

Are blue eyes - summer fair

Your lips are softly smiling

Like laughter's own playground

Reminding me of angels

There, dancing all around

Soft hand with gentle fingers

 Beneath your cheek doth lie

A cheek where sweet pink roses

Bloom, never will they die

Here in these purple moments

That precede golden dawn

I softly kiss you fond adieu

Then slowly move along

But, not before my love

I place Red roses 'against blond hiar

So you'll know when you waken

My heart 's left lying there

Although my eyes drip sadnes

That I must step away

I'm happy that just watching you

Was my way to start this day

When at last the day is over

Then I will know again

Stillness of heart at home with you

My darling, lover, friend.

We'll share a glass of red, red wine

Then dance a dance or two

 I want to spend this evening

Just proving I love you

We'll make love on the milky way

Pick stars up as we roam

Let these roses sweet, remind you girl

Of my plans, when I get home.
